Patient Testimonial

Prior to being a patient with Dr’s Surdhar and Lui, I’d have described myself as an “apprehensive” patient. The one that wishes the upcoming circled date on the calendar was past. After a few procedures with the dentists at Bridgeview Dental I can happily say that I no longer dread the upcoming appointments and look forward to seeing the friendly dental team and having my dental work done. Even a recent extraction and implant that followed was without discomfort. I feel confident in the treatment they provide me knowing they keep up with what’s new in the dental field with their continuing education and study club participation. Heather

Irda Dyck most remembers the deep bond she felt with her classmates at Abbotsford Christian School (ACS). Erin Hall feels that same sense of family whenever she steps into the school. It’s something that hasn’t changed in 60 years. ACS recorded a milestone this month: It has been six decades since the elementary school first began operation in the basement of First Christian Reformed Church. It is now located on Old Clayburn Road and has expanded over the years to include a middle and secondary school campus just one kilometre down the road. A preschool has also been added to the elementary campus. Dyck was in Grade 7 when ACS first opened its doors in 1953 with just 90 students. All five of her children have attended the school, and two grandchildren are current students. The Halls first became part of the ACS family seven years ago, when their son Riley, now in Grade 7, began kindergarten. Two other Hall children also attend the school: Makenna, in Grade 4, and Katelyn, in Grade 1. Dyck and Hall agree that, despite the generations between their ACS experiences, the school offers something special. “The school has amazing families – parents who volunteer above and beyond what is expected of them,” Hall said. Dyck said she appreciates the warm welcome she receives whenever she visits ACS for her grandchildren’s activities. She said although the school spirit remains the same, much has changed over the decades. In the early years, teachings were strictly academic with no extracurricular or cultural offerings. “I think the kids now have way more freedom to express themselves,” she said. Dyck laughs at the memory of that first year, when teachers were trying to establish their authority with new students and develop their curriculum. “The boys were pretty rough … They used to jump out of the window to run to the bathroom (which was located outside of the church),” she said. Dyck said she will always remember the special bond that she and her classmates formed with one another. Hall heard good things about ACS when it was time for Riley to begin school, and a tour of the site clinched it for her and her husband. “We just liked it. We thought, ‘This is where our kids should go’ … When we walked in the doors, it didn’t feel overwhelming … It felt comfortable,” she said. Her youngest child has special needs, and Hall said she appreciates that Katelyn is never made to feel different from the other students. “Here, I feel she is valued as much as any other child.” ACS now serves 945 students and 452 families from preschool to Grade 12. A 60th anniversary celebration will be held at the end of the school year on June 21, 2014. For more information, visit abbotsfordchristian.com.

Homeless: Where to next? ‘We’ll be having this conversation again in a couple of weeks’

place for the homeless to stay. In Portland, the project is located “a few kilometres out of town” and is not elaborate. “It has base sanitary use and base electricity. It’s very minimal in its needs,” explained Draper. But until a plan is approved, the homeless being evicted will just wander until they create a new camp. “Then we’ll be having this conversation again in a couple of weeks,” said Draper. A second homeless camp, located across from Abbotsford Community Services, is also steadily growing. Occupants there are wondering if their site will be the next to be dismantled.

Vikki HOPES

An 84-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene of a collision Tuesday morning at the intersection of Lefeuvre and Huntingdon roads. The crash occurred at approximately 9:35 when, according to police, a dump truck collided with a 2005 Toyota Corolla. The truck was travelling east on Huntingdon when it collided with the Corolla, which was going south on Lefeuvre. Both the truck and the Toyota went off the road, on the south side of Huntingdon. The driver of the dump truck was not seriously injured. Portions of Huntingdon and Lefeuvre roads were closed for several hours while police collision reconstructionists were on the scene. The exact circumstances of the crash had not been released as of press deadline.

QUESTION

WebTalk

OF THE WEEK

Tougher distracted driving penalties?

Would you support tougher penalties for distracted driving?

You bet – pocket books and car impoundments really do bug most people. Jo Welch

To answer, go to abbynews.com

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Let’s focus on making rape, murder, etc penalties tougher first! Brittany Johnson

Given recent bear sightings, have you made efforts to reduce attractants on your property?

Why bother? There aren’t enough cops around to enforce it anyway. Too many people are still doing it and they don’t care. Gerry and Theresa Rousseu

You responded:

No! The average “distracted” driver is an ordinary hard-working person. Harsher penalties should be served to people actually committing crimes! Will Tinker

YES: 37 % NO: 63 %

Euthanasia is a slippery slope Several times a week I go to Maplewood House to visit my dad, who has Alzheimerâ€™s disease. Itâ€™s sad to watch someone you love deteriorate over the years. But, Iâ€™ve always tried to put myself in his shoes and I believe it is important to keep visiting him and tell him we love him. I cherish his smiles. Itâ€™s not easy â€“ for him, or for the rest of our family. But, the sorrow is lightened by the compassion shown by the care aides, nurses, and managers at Maplewood. They feed my dad and take care of his personal care needs. But they do so much more. We sigh together, we laugh together. They walk this journey with me. Iâ€™m troubled by the family of a patient,

Margaret Bentley, who are pursuing a lawsuit against Maplewood House. Why? Because they want the care aides to stop feeding her. I understand this wish was in her living will. But letâ€™s be practical. If she had to be force-fed through a feeding tube, that would be extraordinary measures. But, itâ€™s quite another decision to stop feeding someone who continues to eat when you put a spoon to her

mouth. If they quit feeding her, the care aides would feel this is essentially causing a slow death â€“ in other words, murder. Iâ€™m not in favour of changing the compassionate nature of our health care facilities through the courts. Euthanasia is a slippery slope and I donâ€™t think we should go there. I hope the family loses the lawsuit, not because I donâ€™t understand their sad situation, because I

most certainly do, but because the majority of people in Canada still believe it is an act of kindness to tenderly care for patients until they die a natural death. That, to me, is compassion. Thank you, Maplewood House â€“ for going the second mile caring for our loved ones. You have many community friends supporting you. Trudy Beyak Abbotsford

Ultimate pot warning The infamous mayor of Toronto once again demonstrated his need for attention by jumping into the media spotlight swirling around Justin Trudeauâ€™s admission he had taken five or six puffs of weed. Rob Ford, ever the bigger-than-life extrovert, playfully boasted he had smoked â€œa lotâ€? of marijuana. If and when marijuana is legalized, the federal government is certain to insist that warnings are placed on the packages describing the harmful longterm effects of overuse. The best way to scare the hell out of teenagers would be to attach a picture of Rob Ford under the heading: â€œI smoked a lot of marijuana. Do you want to end up like me?â€? Lloyd Atkins Vernon

No garbage export ban Jeff NAGEL

DISCOVER,

Black Press

A controversial ban on hauling garbage out of Metro Vancouver has been shot down by regional district directors, at least for now. The proposed waste flow control bylaw – denounced by some critics as a way to pen up garbage in the region to feed a new incinerator – aimed to keep waste from going to an Abbotsford transfer station or other out-of-region landfills where tipping fees are far lower and Metro bans on dumping recyclables don’t apply. The 6-5 vote by Metro’s zero waste committee doesn’t kill the idea, the subject of a year of debate and dozens of delegations, but sends it to a task force for more work and improvement. Metro planners warned a trickle of waste now being trucked out of region threatens to turn into a flood, bleeding the regional district of tipping fee revenue that underpins the entire garbage and recycling system. The decision came after several waste and recycling industry reps spoke against the bylaw, as well as B.C. Chamber of Commerce president John Winter, who said a “Metro monopoly” on garbage disposal would mean higher costs for businesses and thwart unfettered free enterprise. Waste hauler BFI, which trucks garbage from Metro businesses to Abbotsford, was one of the staunchest opponents of the bylaw. Even more loudly opposed was Northwest Waste Solutions, a firm building a $30-million mixed-waste material recovery facility (MRF) in south Vancouver to pull recyclables from garbage. The bylaw was originally to ban so-called “dirty” MRFs that sort garbage, but, under pressure from Northwest, Metro retooled the bylaw to allow them. Planners built in tight restrictions to guard against the potential downside – backsliding on conventional recycling, where people do the sorting prior to collection, not machinery at a plant. Northwest argued its MRF’s machinery could retrieve much usable material that would otherwise go to landfills or be incinerated. The idea appealed to Metro directors, who know recycling rates are dismal in apartment buildings and thought it may help get the region up to and over its goal of 70 per cent diversion. But Northwest CEO Ralph McRae denounced the planned limits, calling them a “bureaucratic stranglehold” on his operation and accused Metro of conflict-of-interest because it will soon build a new incinerator that could be starved of fuel if his recycling model succeeds. Metro’s concession to his operation also drew fire from rival recycling firms that had previously supported a waste export ban. Some feared losing their normal flow of separated recyclables if Northwest’s MRF ate up much of the market by offering a singlestream pickup service with no separation required.

An Abbotsford truck driver is suing two police officers who he says “smashed” his body so hard during an arrest that he lost consciousness. Shaun Haswell has also named the City of Abbotsford in his civil suit – filed Sept. 3 in B.C. Supreme Court – in which he is claiming costs for injuries he allegedly sustained during the incident, which occurred March 23, 2013. The notice of civil claim states that Haswell was in Character’s Pub on Pauline Street in Abbotsford between 12:30 and 1:30 a.m., when he was “suddenly and without warning assaulted” by the two officers, who are not named in the documents. Haswell claims that he was attacked from behind, and his head and body were “thrashed” against a table. “The plaintiff was falsely arrested and taken to the Abbotsford Police Department cells where he was left unconscious,” the documents state. They further state that, once he regained consciousness, Haswell requested medical attention but was ignored until he was taken to hospital by ambulance “after two to three hours.” The claim states that Haswell suffered injuries to his left knee, lower back and head, as well as bruises and contusions. Haswell alleges that “unwarranted and excessive” force was used during the arrest. He is seeking expenses for medical treatment, compensation for loss of employment income, and special damages. None of the allegations in the claim has been proven in court nor have the defendants filed a response. They have three weeks to do so, once the notice of civil claim is served.

Marijuana drive begins Sensible BC has 90 days to collect 400,000 signatures Tom FLETCHER Black Press

A 90-day countdown began Monday for a petition drive to force the effective legalization of simple possession of marijuana in B.C. Volunteers for Sensible B.C., led by long-time drug legalization advocate Dana Larsen, have until Dec.

We’re on the

Move Come in & you’ll see savings up to

5 to collect more than 400,000 signatures. Using the same law that forced repeal of the harmonized sales tax, the petition to trigger a province-wide referendum needs support from 10 per cent of registered voters in each of B.C.’s 85 electoral districts. Larsen has proposed that B.C. go around the federal prohibition with a “Sensible Policing Act” that would disallow the use of B.C. police resources to prosecute simple possession of small amounts of pot by adults. Marijuana possession cases still account for 60 per cent of drug violation reports to police in B.C., according to Statistics Canada

Dana Larsen is hoping to stop prosecution of people for simple marijuana possession. figures from 2012. But the number of cases declined 10 per cent from 2011. There were 25,432 police-reported incidents of all types of drug offences in B.C. last year, a 7.4 per cent decline from 2011. Marijuana trafficking

cases declined more than 20 per cent to 1,006 incidents, and importation and exportation of marijuana declined by 40 per cent. Marijuana growing cases declined 4.6 per cent, following a 28.6 per cent drop in 2011.

Abbotsford MP talks trade, travel and tariffs Kevin MILLS Abbotsford News

It’s getting to be a rarer sight – Conservative MP Ed Fast enjoying some free time in his home riding. Just over two years ago, Abbotsford’s representative in the House of Commons was given the title of Minister of International Trade and Minister for the Asia-Pacific Gateway. Since that appointment, life has changed for Fast. His first year was “very much a steep learning curve,” considering he had little to no experience in trade. “The second year has been a year where I’ve been able to provide more direction in terms of the key priorities that our government should be focusing on,” said Fast. He said one of the key outcomes this year will be the refreshing of the global commerce strategy, due this fall. “The global commerce strategy is our government’s umbrella strategy for identifying the markets that matter around the world for Canadian exporters and investors.” It also determines why these are considered priority markets and how to penetrate those markets. He said key partners in Southeast Asia including Malaysia and Thailand as well as South American markets, including Brazil, are part of the strategy. China is another major trade partner. “Our bilateral trade flows between

Canada and China have increased dramatically over the last 10 years. In fact, over the last two years alone, we’ve seen an increase in bilateral trade of $10 billion.” He added that Canada’s exports to China are increasing by a greater percentage than China’s imports to this country.

One of the markets Fast is working on is exporting blueberries into the China, much like what was done for B.C. cherries. In Latin America, there are four other “like-minded” countries with which Canada has key relationships, including Chile, Peru, Columbia and Mexico.

“We will also be bringing a new focus to Africa.” According to Fast, the interest in Africa is more on the investment side, rather than trade. “We have Canadian companies that are very much invested in different parts of the African continent. So what we’re doing Continued on A22

Close to 40 countries visited last year gion.” Investment interest for Canadians is mainly in mining, oil and gas extraction, transportation, education and infrastruc-

ture development. Fast said his government has a robust trade negotiation agenda. In the past six years, trade agreements have been

reached with nine different countries and negotiations are ongoing with 50 others, including Japan and India. “Of course, the biggest one of all right now is trying to close off our negotiations with the European Union.” Fast said both sides are focused on getting a quality agreement, but each side has core interests that have to be defended. While he declined to speculate on what

Fast said it has also been a busy year in Ottawa, during which the government has new legislation on a variety of topics including human rights, crime and water. “We passed a law that will prevent our fresh water from being sold abroad for commercial purposes, which has always been an issue. People have often raised … are we selling out our water? Absolutely not. Water is never on

the table, we’ve made that very clear.” That legislation doesn’t prevent bottled water from being sold, but does stop the sale of bulk water through a pipeline to the United States. “That cannot happen in Canada.” Last year, Fast visited close to 40 countries, some more than once, to discuss trade issues. While he estimates he’s only in Abbotsford about five months a year in total, Fast said he and his staff still maintain a close working relationship with constituents and serving their needs. “Also I would note that over the last seven years, Abbotsford has received a record amount of federal government investment in infrastructure.” On a local level, Fast said he is aware of concerns by retailers surrounding crossborder shopping and the decision last year to raise the amount of goods that could be purchased across the line. In its most recent budget, the federal government removed some of the import tariffs that impact Canadian businesses. “I expect that review will continue. “We want to make sure Canadian retailers are actually doing business on a level playing field.” The past 12 months have been busy on a personal level as well as the 58-year-old Fast became a grandfather for the first time.

Keep patio gardens contained Over the next two seasons, when the weather turns cooler and wetter with shorter hours of daylight, wouldn’t it be wonderful to brighten up your patio with some great colour? Enhancing our patios with colourful containers is easier than you may think. You just need a different strategy for fall and winter. First: the containers. Terracotta in our climate is not the best for winter. Well fired, quality pots with a lacquer finish are usually fine, but most inexpensive clay absorbs moisture and is more susceptible to cracking and chipping in winter. Well fired ceramics are fine as are zinc, resin and well made plastic containers. As a rule of thumb, the larger the container, the better the plants do, simply because of the larger soil mass. For a nicer look, try grouping the planters together and if you can, varying the heights. Soil is a key issue in fall and winter. Open, porous, well drained soil is a must. Regular potting soils hold too much moisture that tends to rot roots. Your best bet is to get a quality potting soil and add a third measure of bark mulch. This is essentially a nursery mix which is ideal for all fall and winter plants. Most hardy plants will thrive in containers over winter and with cooler temperatures will need minimal maintenance. They will, however, need to be kept moist, especially if the containers are under eaves. The main winter issue is the degree of cold temperatures. Hardy plants in winter containers will do nicely down to about -8°C. Lower than that, they need protection. The easiest shelter is to simply create a protected area that is insulated properly to keep the containers out of severely cold winds and deep freeze conditions. On patios, it is easy to wrap insulating materials, like fibreglass, around the pots and bubble poly around that to keep the fibreglass dry. As soon as the worst of the cold is over, simply store

Now, for the best winter container plants, here is a list of my favourites.

Guitarist Alder set to perform

Don Alder, one of the top acoustic guitarists in the world and one of Canadaâ€™s premiere harp guitarists is coming to Abbotsford. Alder was the winner of the 2011 Guitar Idol, 2010 Guitar Superstar, and the 2007 International finger style championships. He plays music and sings in the key of social responsibility and uses his guitar to inspire a new generation of guitarists to do the same by having a

positive impact in their community. From 1985-87 Alder put his music career on hold to help his friend Rick Hansen go around the world in a wheelchair. Upon returning he continued his journey as a volunteer working with various wheelchair sport organizations, the Vancouver Adapted Music Society in the awareness band Spinal Cord and then representing Canada at the 1996 and 2000 Paralympics as the equipment

On Sept. 14 from 6 to 8 p.m., the Envision Concert in the Park Series will present Joel Willoughby at Mill Lake Park (Kariton Art Gallery Stage, 2387 Ware Street) in Abbotsford. Willoughby has absorbed plenty of culture in his life, and growing up overseas has given him a unique world view. With such varied life experiences, that well-traveled, worldweary soul can’t help but show up in Willoughby’s songs. Elements of indierock collide with Britpop sensibilities to create a great sound of folk-tinged pop.

Abbotsford junior B hockey club to host Keystone Cup in April

From A33

But Cowden, the Pilots’ longtime bench boss, isn’t looking that far ahead, nor can he afford to. He’s focused on putting the finishing touches on the roster and guiding the squad

through a challenging slate of games to open the Pacific Junior Hockey League regular season, beginning this week. “At this point, it’s way too early (to worry about the Keystone

Cup),” Cowden asserted. “You look at the group you’ve got, and you believe in that group and see where it goes. I’m hoping they can develop, and I think they will.” The Pilots have to retool the roster to a

certain extent every year, but this season’s renovation is more extensive than usual, as only five regulars from last year’s squad are returning. The dearly departed include three of the Pilots’ top four

scorers in 2012-13 in Adam Rossi, Michael Tebbutt and Brandon Daase, along with team captain Brett Kolins and goalie Aaron Oakley, the league MVP last season. The core of returnees includes forwards Brady

Lawlor, Colton Cowden and Joel Atkinson, and defencemen Ryan Parmar and Eric Wieking. Parmar, the team’s top-scoring blueliner last year with 36 points in 40 games, will wear

the captain’s C. “He’s a leader – he’s vocal in the dressing room, he leads by example on the ice,” Cowden explained. “Everything he does, he does at a high pace.” Cowden added to his veteran core via the trade route. In June, he swung a deal with the Fernie Ghostriders of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League, obtaining centre Braeden Monk and defenceman Simon Horlick in exchange for future considerations. Monk, a Langley native, was a big-time scorer in Fernie last season, leading the team with 56 points (21 goals, 35 assists) in 50 games. Surrey product Horlick, meanwhile, will miss the first month of the season as he recovers from hip surgery, but Cowden believes he’ll be one of the best blueliners in the league upon his return. “They’re both 20-yearolds, and they both wanted to play closer to home,” Cowden said. “It worked out well for us.” The Pilots also pulled the trigger on a trade with the Delta Ice Hawks, adding Mission native Kolten Grieve for future considerations. Cowden plans to slot him on the left wing on the top forward line with Monk in the middle and Bradley Parker on the right wing. Parker split last season between the Pilots and the junior A Powell River Kings. In goal, the Pilots have Zachary Station, who served as Oakley’s backup last season, and Luke Stripp, who is moving up to junior B from the major midget ranks. Cowden generally prefers to have a defined No. 1 netminder, but he’ll let the duo battle for playing time in the early going. “They’re both good goalies, so we’ll see how that goes,” he said. “Probably at some point, we’ll have to make a decision.” On Thursday, the Pilots open the regular season on the road vs. the Richmond Sockeyes (7 p.m., Richmond Arena). The Sockeyes won the Keystone Cup in 2013, following in the footsteps of the Pilots, who won it in 2012. On Friday, the Abby club hosts its home opener, taking on their Harold Brittain Conference rival Aldergrove Kodiaks (7:30 p.m., MSA Arena).

Abbotsford News Thursday, September 12, 2013

Hot second-half shooting paces NCAA squad past UFV The University of the Fraser Valley men’s basketball team gave the University of CaliforniaRiverside Highlanders all they could handle in the first half of Monday’s exhibition game, only to watch the visiting NCAA Div. 1 squad step on the accelerator after the break. After centre Jasper Moedt banked in a three-pointer to beat the second-quarter buzzer, the Cascades were within a point of the Highlanders at 3332. But the UC-Riverside offence hit high gear in the second half – after shooting just 33.3 per cent over the first 20 minutes, they knocked down 57.6 per cent of their shots the rest of the way, en route to an 81-61 victory. “We gave them a great game in the first half,” UFV coach Adam Friesen noted. “They just out-shot us in the second half.” The big men did much of the damage for UCRiverside – 6’7” freshman Taylor Johns came off the bench to score 18 points and pull down 14 rebounds, while 6’10” Australian Chris Patton tied him for game-high scoring honours with 18 points and six boards. The Highlanders won the battle of the boards decisively, out-rebounding the Cascades 48-26. Moedt, with 12 points and five rebounds, led UFV in both departments.

Abbotsford – A hassle-free service allows homeowners to receive up to date real estate market information speciÀc to their home without having to meet with a real estate agent. Some homeowners are reluctant to meet with a realtor as they may only be in the early stages of planning a move or may not yet know if they will move. “Should we sell or stay? How much equity do we actually have?” Often these questions cannot be answered without knowing the current value of your home. Determining the value of your home is based largely on comparing your home to similar homes that have recently sold. This comparative approach should consider several factors – features of each home, location, neighbourhood, length of time on the market, etc. However, access to this type of information is generally re-

Corrosion is the #1 cause of brake component failure. Corrosion can pit the metal bores of the master cylinder, and ABS components. Just like engine oil, coolant and transmission fluid, brake fluid “wears” over time. Not only does brake fluid wear, but the internal brake components also wear, producing “sludge”.

Act of sportsmanship nets Musial Award for Fusion Members of the Fraser Valley Fusion 97 fastpitch team helped an injured baserunner from the Surrey Storm cross home plate at the B.C. championships in July. Their sportsmanship has earned them the prestigious Musial Award from the St. Louis Sports Commission. Submitted photo

It was the right thing to do. That was all that was going through the minds of Shannon Chick, Kristan Rodrigues and Shae Domitruk. It was back in July, during a playoff game at the provincial championships between the Fraser Valley Fusion 97 fastpitch team and the Surrey Storm 97 at Victoria’s Helmcken Park. The Storm’s Raelyn Radovich had just belted a three-run home run over the centre-field fence, tying the game. But while she was rounding first base, Radovich suffered a knee injury. She limped her way around second base and then third, but the pain became too much Continued on A43

Team fundraising to attend award ceremony sented by two former members of the Central Washington softball team who in 2008 did the same with a fallen opponent, in a video that went viral. “We did not expect this,” said Chick. The Fusion are hoping

to raise enough money to send all 12 players and three coaches to the ceremony. Right now, airfare and accommodation is provided for just two people. “It is not really a twoperson award, it is a team award,” said coach

Gord O’Grady. The estimated cost for a ticket to St. Louis is about $800 per person, so multiply that by 13 and it is $10,000 just for the airfare. The various Fusion teams are holding tryouts in the upcoming

week and the focus will then shift to fundraising. To donate, visit www. langleysoftball.com/ Langley-Fastball-OnlineStore.aspx. For donations greater than $300, the Fusion will display company logos on their team banner.

to bear and she collapsed. Since she had rounded third base and was between third and home, she could not stop and call for a pinch runner. And if a teammate or coach was to help her, she would be called out. That was when the Fusion trio sprung into action. Chick, Rodrigues and Domitruk hoisted the fallen Radovich up and carried her to home plate. “If one of our girls happened (to get hurt) and fall, we would have wanted someone to step up and say we are going to take her home as well,” Chick explained. She described the moment as very emotional, with the fallen player – and many of the fans in attendance – moved to tears. “None of us really said anything, it just kind of happened,” said Domitruk. “I felt bad for her, she totally deserved the home run so we picked her up and carried her home,” Rodrigues said. The Fusion went on to win that game and eventually finished second at provincials. But something bigger than winning the silver medal also happened to the Fusion, a regional squad of 16-year-old girls which features Abbotsford centre fielder/second baseman Callum Pilgrim. The St. Louis Sports Commission deemed the team worthy of the Musial Award, which recognizes great moments in sportsmanship. The prize is named for the late St. Louis Cardinals’ Hall of Famer Stan Musial. While the Missouribased organization does accept nominations, most often they will select the award recipients through their own research, and they came across a story about the Fusion’s sportsmanship on the Langley Times website. “We are always on the lookout for extraordinary stories of sportsmanship,” explained Marc Schreiber, the vicepresident of the organization. The Fusion will receive the Musial Award – formerly known as the National Sportsmanship Award and presented since 1999 – on Nov. 9 in St. Louis. The Fusion will be the first recipient from outside the United States, Schreiber said. The award will be pre-

God took you away two years ago today. They say there is a reason, they say that time will heal. But neither time nor reason will change the way we feel. For no one knows the heartache that lies behind our smiles. No one knows how often we have broken down and cried. We want to tell you something. So there won’t be any doubt. You are so wonderful to think of but so hard to be without.

Gone from the earth so swiftly, Just like a flower in bloom, So young, so strong, so loving, Yet called away so soon. Sadly missed, from Mom & Brothers.

Your loving husband Dale, your children, grandchildren & sisters.

OBITUARIES

CARNAHAN Beth Elaine (nee Gilchrist)

BOYLE John M. “Jack” 1931 ~ 2013 Jack passed away about 6:00 am on September 1, 2013. He was diagnosed just two weeks earlier with liver cancer. He is pre-deceased by his brother Bill and sisters Janie and Eleanor (Pogie). He is survived by his partner of 49 years Jim Lorenzen, his brother Jim and wife Di as well as numerous nieces and nephews. It seems from this early photo his aspiration was to be a cowboy, perhaps because his grandfather was the first U.S. Marshall in the Oregon Territory. By his expression it did not last long and at age 13 he took up skating. He became a principal skater in the Ice Follies and “Holiday on Ice” and was said to get the Khrushchev salary when he was invited to skate at the American base in Garmish, Germany. Jack spent two years in the American Airforce and thereafter became a pro and taught in various places in the States before moving to Vancouver where he taught figure skating for many years at the Forum. In 1969 he and Jim began to raise Arabian horses and had many champions over the next 34 years as “Black Tent Arabians”. There will be a Celebration of Life on Saturday September 21, 2013 from 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm at Jack and Jim’s home 32069 Trembath Ave., Mission, BC. Bring your memories.

It is with great sadness that we announce that our dear mother Beth Elaine Carnahan, passed away Sept. 6, 2013, peacefully at the age of 90 years, at Menno Home. She was predeceased by her husband Raeburn in 1973, brothers William “Bill”, and Jack, her sisters Anna, Dorothy “Dot” and Joan. Survived by her 2 sons, Lloyd (June), and Allan (Colleen), her grandchildren Scott (Andrea), and Brian, her great-grandchildren Dexter, Maeva and Oscar, nephew Ken Bell in Saskatchewan and family friends. No funeral by request but a family gathering will be held at a date to be determined. The family would also like to thank the staff at Menno Home West 1, Abbotsford for the wonderful care provided. Peacefully sleeping, Resting at last, The worlds weary troubles And trials are past. In silence she suffered, In patience she bore, Till God called her home To suffer no more.
